Throughout the early stages of getting to know you, I have been struck by your kindness not just to me, but to one another. You gather around food when you meet; you are quick to offer a hand when help is needed; you pray for one another; you include people of all ages and stages in worship and congregational decision making. As we begin ministry together in this place, I pray that we will continue to gather around the table, offer help when needs arise, open our hands to our neighbor, and keep each other in prayer. I also ask for your patience as I get to know you. Don t hesitate to offer your name, or share your story of what Redeemer means to you. Please also share your joys, fears, and moments of grace. I hope that in the weeks and months to come, we will grow together in faith. I am looking forward to what God has in store for us who gather as servants and disciples, ready to learn, serve, grow and love. In Christ, Pastor Heather Sugden
